Sec. 4. (a) This chapter provides the procedure for filing and releasing a common law lien.
(b) This chapter does not create a common law lien. A common law lien does not exist against the property of a public official for the performance or nonperformance of the public official's official duty. A person asserting a common law lien must prove the existence of the lien:
(1) as prescribed by the common law of Indiana; or
(2) as provided in this chapter.
(c) Unless a common law lien becomes void at an earlier date under section 6(b) of this chapter, a common law lien is void if the common law lienholder fails to commence a suit on the common law lien within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date the common law lien is recorded under this chapter.
